The Sunflower Sword Reviews

Latimer's illustrations are absolutely beautiful in this enchanting tale. * The Bookseller *
Brimming with charm in bold, striking colour - marvellously sweet. -- Philip Womack * The Sunday Telegraph *
I loved Miriam Latimer's illustrations - the little knight is a great character, and the style suits both the quirky start and gentle finish. -- Keith Dudhnath * TheBookBag.co.uk *
This is a lively book to read with young children, colourful and spirited. -- Morag Charlwood * Armadillo Magazine *
Well received in hardback, simple beautifully drawn tale of friendship triumphing over fighting and one of my favourite picture books of the year. Dragons and knights make it a great boys' choice too. -- Fiona Noble * The Bookseller *
